A special committee of Papa John's board of directors met on Sunday to discuss the recent controversy surrounding founder John Schnatter's use of the N-word.

"The derogatory and insensitive comments made by Papa John's founder John Schnatter are not reflective of Oregon State University's values and the inclusive environment we strive to foster throughout the university community and within OSU Athletics for all student-athletes and fans", Barnes said in a statement on Monday.

A Papa John's spokesman did not immediately reply to a request for comment. However, the announcement of Schnatter's resignation gave the company share price an 11% bump and there are now rumors it could be bought by a larger restaurant conglomerate.

The founder and former CEO also accused executives at Laundry Service of trying to extort $6million from Papa John's. "I'm like, 'I'm not paying you $6 million, '" he told the radio station.
